The Early Cold War

Communism vs. Capitalism

Karl Marx

Marxism History is a progression. –Feudalism --> Capitalism --> Communism History is a conflict between the classes. The proletariat will rise up and overthrow the bourgeoisie. Afterwards, there will be a communist utopia. The Communist Manifesto – 1848; Capital – 1867.

Communism The proletariat (workers) will overthrow the bourgeoisie (rich and propertied). The workers will own the means of production – factories, tools, etc. There will be no social classes.

V. I. Lenin

Marxism-Leninism Similar to Marxism, except Lenin said the workers needed to be led in their revolution, and that capitalism was not a necessary precondition for communism. Marxism-Leninism also justified a dictatorship.

Joseph Stalin

Stalinism Marxism-Leninism practiced by Stalin. Called for rapid industrialization by means of “Five-Year Plans.”
